Hi Coach Thibaudeau. I have a CrossFit competition coming up this weekend in Saint John. There will be 2 WOD's, 15 minutes long, mostly metabolic based, no max weights. A 3rd WOD if I make to the finals @ 4pm. What would be your recommendation for fueling for max performance. I have Plazma rdls, Surge Workout Fuel and Indigo. Thanks for your time.

Thanks Coach, I did the protocol you suggested. It worked great. I finished 5th in the Masters division. I felt great during the WODS. 3 WODS in total for me.[/quote]

The hardest is not so much the 3 WODs, but the fact that you actually rest between WODs and then have to restart the engine. My wife and I did a 24-hours Crossfit marathon in which we had to complete 24 WODs (one per hour) in teams of 4 (6 WODs each), and the almost 4 hours wait between WODs was the worse… I think that doing all 6 in a row would have been easier!

So true…This is my 5th competition in the past 3 months and in each one, there was some big gaps in the start times. In this one, WOD #1 @ 11am, Wod#2 @ 2pm and Wod #3 @ 3:45pm. I think that the plazma is going to shine in my recovery. I feel pretty good tonight.
